Anti-genAI art platform Cara has been scraped a second time and the AI bros are taking sheer perverse joy in the distress it’s causing the artists who contribute to the platform

      Oh, get off your high horse. Tell me you’ve never once trolled someone on the internet.

        Destroying someone’s online safety and torching whatever job security they might try to cling to for a laugh does not constitute “”“trolling”“”, shitbag.

        Go touch grass for a while, and contemplate how you became such a contemptible human being.

          You should follow your own advice. Becoming a lolcow is not gonna stop slop jockeys from trolling artists.

                  Uhh, I dunno man. These guys are assholes, but equating art theft to rape is a brain damage take.

                    It isn’t, but not knowing how metaphors work might be.

                    Then these artists reward them with giant melodrama filled rants about how awful and violated they feel. It’s like a free dopamine hit.

                    These are the words of a rapist. Straightforwardly.

                    What’s so great about discovery? It’s a violent, penetrative act that scars what it explores. What you call discovery, I call the rape of the natural world.

                    That’s Jurassic Park my man - if you think Michael Chrichton has brain damage then you need to get your thumb out of your mouth you literal child. Calling support of AI ‘rapist’ speak is 100% accurate.
